Waiting Children

Too many children and teens await permanency. 25,000 teens graduate from the child welfare system each year. Many of whom will live a life of homelessness and criminal activity. You can adopt if you are a loving adult willing to make a lifelong commitment to a child. It’s never too late to make a difference in the life of a waiting child.

There are thousands of foster children across Pennsylvania who are waiting to be adopted, waiting for families with enough room in their hearts and homes to love some very special children in need. The Pennsylvania Heart Gallery features more than 50 of those children in an exhibit of professional portraits that highlight each child in a way that captures their personality and spirit.
